Abstract

THE various text-books on soil science that have been produced by Prof. Lyon and his associates at Cornell University overlap one another to a certain extent. Much of the present volume will also be found within the pages of “Soils: their Properties and Management,” by Profs. Lyon, Fippen, and Buckman, but the book as a whole marks a definite advance on the earlier ones, and further establishes the prominent position occupied by the Cornell school in soil investigations.

By Prof. T. Lyttleton Lyon Prof. Harry O. Buckman. (Agricultural Science Series.) Pp. v+588. (New York: The Macmillan Co.; London: Macmillan and Co., Ltd., 1922.) 15s. net.
